Questions About Steel Log Siding

How should I care for my TruLogā„¢ steel log siding?
TruLogā„¢ siding requires very little care, in fact we consider it maintenance free. On a regular basis, washing the siding with water from your garden hose works perfectly. Use a jet spray to direct the water forcefully at your siding, and the dirt should slide off easily.

Each piece of siding contains a contoured foam backer that insulates your home and makes it more energy efficient. This foam backer adds a higher insulation R-value (roughly 1-2 R-value) to your home.

Can I paint my TruLogā„¢ siding?
One of the great advantages of TruLogā„¢ siding is that you don’t need to paint it to keep it looking new. Unlike vinyl log siding, TruLogā„¢ steel log siding will last many years without the color fading. However, TruLogā„¢ siding accepts paint as easily as any other piece of steel siding. A paint professional will help you pick the right type of paint for your home.

What colors are available?
TruLog comes available in four earthy colors: sable, canyon red, autumn brown and cedar. You can view an online representation of these four colors on our product page, but for a true example of the available colors, ask us for a sample!

Is TruLogā„¢ siding durable?
TruLogā„¢ is made from 28 gauge steel, backed by foam that supports the steel making it more rigid and not easily dented. Your TruLogā„¢ siding is designed to withstand exposure to freezing water, high wind, sun and hail, and is considerably more durable than many vinyl siding options.

How long does TruLogā„¢ siding last?
TruLogā„¢ is designed to last the lifetime of your home, and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty, that includes a 30 year chalk and fade warranty.
